Hi,
I want to write a small hook to sup to use libnotify and show a small
popup whenever email comes from specific sources.
I need to be able to mention a list of email addresses of people who's
emails are important to me and need to be notified of, and the other
ones I can just ignore.
I don't know any ruby, but I'm sure that this isn't something too
difficult to implement. I am not sure how to use the hooks and the API
in them. I guess I have to use a hook that is executed when the email is
received, but I'm not sure how to get the exact text of the email
address.
Any suggestions on how to go about doing this would be awesome!
Thanks,
Anirudh

You mean something like this? It was a little flaky when I last used it,
but it did work.

You can see the hooks (and the variables they expose) by running sup -l.
I think you want the after-poll hook. Something like this might work
(I'm modifying my after-poll.rb slightly)
require 'cgi'
notify_addresses = %w(
someguy@example.com
otherguy@example.com
)
from_and_subj.each do |m|
next if notify_addresses.select { |a| m[0].include? a }.empty?
msg = CGI.escapeHTML(m.join "\n")
system("notify-send", "-t", "10000", "New E-Mail", msg)
end
(the HTML escaping is necessary for notify-send to work, otherwise you
just get a blank popup).
